So I have this Rhode island Red that was acting different hiding under the ramp to the chicken house I got close and she got up but at bed time she was back under the ramp. So I picked her up and she was rail thin. I could feel her complete breast bone. Her vent looked a little clogged so I got her in war water to clean her up. I gave her watermelon and some chick feed and she ate that up. I also gave her fish antibiotics. She seems to be eat well and drinking. Today, I soaked her again and I let her out to dry off and she tried to jump off our deck which is maybe 1 foot high and she fell. Her legs crumbled under her. This is where I noticed she had this old wound on her leg as well see the photo. Is there anything I should do for the wound?
I know I said a lot but I feel like I am managing the other parts. I dont know what is wrong with her. We treated for mites 2 weeks ago and we have another chicken who was egg bound who is also in a long recovery.
